Diversity and Inclusion

"The true strength of this firm, as in any organization, lies in the fact that we are all different... The strength inherent in this firm rests upon these collective and diverse interests. They are all we have.” —Andrew Thomas Kearney, founder, A.T. Kearney

Diversity and Inclusion: A Business Imperative Diversity and Inclusion: A Business Imperative

In every aspect of our work, everyone at A.T. Kearney strives to add value for our clients. And we know that our clients derive greater benefit from teams possessing diverse expertise and comprised of individuals who bring with them unique experiences, backgrounds, and skill sets. To do this most effectively and authentically, it is not only important that our people can be themselves and feel comfortable without encountering prejudice or discrimination but also that they have equal opportunities to contribute, develop, and succeed irrespective of race, sexual orientation, or gender identity and expression.

We continually pursue improvements to our diversity and inclusion policies, structures, and support networks to ensure that we fully meet the needs of our people and our clients, and we continuously work to advance the highest standards for our industry. A.T. Kearney actively promotes a diverse and inclusive culture through a variety of channels including our diversity networks, programs and initiatives, and our equal employment opportunity policy. Our commitment to diversity is continually recognized by esteemed organizations and publications and organizations including the Human Rights Campaign Foundation, the WorldatWork Alliance for Work-Life Progress, Consulting Magazine, Working Mother magazine, and DiversityMBA magazine, among others.

Decades before today's legal requirements were enacted, Tom Kearney knew that "no one, it can be truthfully said, ever succeeded in building enduringly into this firm by...belittling the values brought by others. It is in the nature of teamwork that this can never be." Discriminatory conduct, jokes, slurs, verbal remarks, or physical contact of an intimate or sexual nature, or other derogatory remarks that create an offensive or hostile environment undermine the workplace and have no place anywhere A.T. Kearney conducts business. Similarly, implicit or explicit threats, intimidation, and violence will not be allowed.
